The Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari
displayed the “highest form of corruption” by entangling himself in a “web of
corruption by trying to launder his WAEC certificate scandal.”
PDP said
instead of being “remorseful and apologizing to Nigerians,”
Buhari was trying to deceive Nigerians about his certificate.
A statement
by PDP’s spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan said “The Presidency displayed the highest
form of corruption and decadence by involving in manipulations, forgery and
lies in an attempt to hoodwink Nigerians with bogus claims even when it had
become clear that Mr. President does not possess the claimed WAEC certificate.
“Nothing is
more humiliating to our nation than
having our
Presidency entangled in high-level of international corruption involving the
name and personality of the President, the latest being the procuring and
parading of fake WAEC certificate
attestation.
“We note
that the development has further worsened the image of the President, whose
administration is overburdened by allegations of ginormous financial corruption
and which has not been able to provide
explanation
for the over N10 trillion siphoned under its watch, particularly in the oil and
gas sector.
“The world
now knows why the Buhari Presidency lacks the rectitude to genuinely fight
corruption and the reason it has been harbouring liars, fraudulent individuals
including certificate forgers both in ministerial and other top government
positions as well as running the most corrupt administration in the history of
our nation.
“Now that
all the shenanigans are laid bare the PDP challenges President Buhari to, in
his words, tell Nigerians how he would describe any person who claims to be
what he is not, or claims to posses what he does not have.
“Finally, we
urge Nigerians to continue to be alert and united in their determination to
vote out this incompetent, deceitful, duplicitous, disconnected and overtly
corrupt Buhari administration, which has brought so much anguish and shame to
our nation.”
